Normally, the insurer rates you as a smoker if you have had used tobacco products within twelve months prior to applying for the life insurance.
Smokers fall into the high risk bracket, and cost more for the insures to provide them coverage, hence, the insurers charge more from the smokers. Quitting smoking thus can help you in lowering your life insurance as well as health insurance costs.
